IMPROVEMENT IN PLOW ATTACHMENTS.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 210,290, dated November26, 1878; application filed March 22, 1878.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that we, WASHINGTON A. B0- LICK, JOHN l). BoLIoK, and JOHNT. FAU- OE'lT, of Brighton, in the county of Tipton and State ofTennessee, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in PlowAttachments; and we do hereby declare that the following is a full,clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilledin the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, referencebeing had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of thisspecification, and in which- Figure l is a side view. Fig. 2 is a topview, and Fig. 3 is a section after the line a: w in Fig. 1.

Similar letters of reference denote corresponding parts in all thefigures.

This invention relates to certain improvements in the means for securingand attaching the colter adjustably to the beam of a plow; and itconsists in the construction and arrangement of parts hereinafter morefully shown and described.

In the drawings, A is the plow-beam. On opposite sides of this arearranged two plates, B B, upon the latter of which slides another plate,O. The plate 0 is provided with two longitudinal horizontal slots, to a,and has between these a nearly vertical inclined recess, 1), for thereception of the colter D.

c c are bolts passing through the plates B B O, and securing them (bymeans of the nuts (I d) to the plow-beam, and e is a thumbscrew, bywhich the colter is held securely in the recess 1).

It will be observed that the colter is adjustable laterally by looseningthe nuts 01 (Z and moving the plate O forward or backward, as may bedesired. It may be adjusted vertically by simply loosening thethumb-screw 0.

By our invention the colter is held very securely in position, and itmay easily be adjusted to suit any kind of plow. The beam isstrengthened considerably by the application of the plates B B, and thewhole device is inexpensive and easily applied and adjusted.

We are aware that colters adjustable vertically, laterally, or both, arenot new. This therefore we do not claim, broadly; but,

Having thus described our invention, we claim and desire to secure byLetters Patent of the United States- In combination with the beam A andcolter D, the plate 0, provided with the slots to a, and constructedwith the oblique recess 0r socket-case b and adjusting screw-bolts c a,substantially as shown and described, and for the purpose specified.

In testimony that we claim the foregoing as our own we have heretoaflixed our signatures in presence of two witnesses.
